Observez toutes les instructions et mises en garde inscrites sur l’appareil.
2. L’installation par un adulte est requise. 3. Ce produit ne remplace pas la
surveillance adulte du nourrisson. La supervision du nourrisson est la
responsabilité du parent ou de la
personne qui s’occupe de l’enfant. Ce produit pourrait cesser de fonctionner
et, par conséquent, vous ne devriez pas présumer qu’il continuera de
fonctionner correctement pendant une période de temps donnée. De plus, il ne
s’agit pas d’un instrument médical et ne devrait pas être utilisé comme tel.
Ce produit est destiné à vous aider à superviser votre bébé. 4. N’utilisez pas
cet appareil près de l’eau ni de toute autre source d’humidité, par exemple,
près d’une baignoire, cuve à lessive, évier de cuisine, dans un sous-sol
humide ni près d’une piscine, dans un soussol humide ou une douche. 5. MISE EN
GARDE: Utilisez uniquement les piles fournies. Il existe un risque d’explosion
si un autre type de batterie est utilisé pour l’unité Parents. N’incinérez pas
les piles. Celles-ci risqueraient d’exploser. Jetez les piles usées selon les
renseignements suivant le sceau du RBRC®. 6. N’utilisez que les adaptateurs
inclus avec ce produit. L’utilisation d’un adaptateur dont la polarité ou la
tension serait inadéquate risque d’endommager sérieusement le produit et
mettre votre sécurité en péril. Adaptateur de l’unité du bébé : Sortie : 6V CC
400mA Adaptateur de l’unité du parent : Sortie : 6V CC 400mA 7. Lorsqu’ils
sont branchés dans une prise de courant, les adaptateurs secteur ont été
conçus pour être orientés correctement, soit à la verticale ou au plancher.
Les broches n’ont pas été conçues pour supporter le poids du bloc
d’alimentation et le maintenir en place si celuici est branché dans une prise
au plafond, sous une table ou dans un meuble. 8. Pour les PRODUITS À BRANCHER
À UNE PRISE DE COURANT, la prise de courant doit être installée près du
produit, afin d’assurer une accessibilité sécuritaire à la prise de courant.
9. Débranchez ce produit de la prise de courant avant de procéder au

consultez votre marchand ou votre compagnie locale d’électricité. 14. Ne
surchargez pas les prises de courant murales ni les rallonges électriques. 15.
Ne placez pas cet appareil sur un chariot, meuble, trépied, support de montage
ni table chancelants. 16. Les trous et ouvertures du boîtier, situés à
l’arrière de l’appareil ou sous celui-ci, servent à aérer l’appareil. Pour
l’empêcher de surchauffer, ne bloquez sous aucun prétexte ces ouvertures et
n’empêchez pas l’aération adéquate de l’appareil en le plaçant sur un lit,
divan, tapis ou toute autre surface similaire. De même, ne le positionnez pas
à proximité ni au-dessus d’une source de chaleur ou d’un calorifère. De plus,
ne placez pas l’appareil dans un endroit avant de vous assurer qu’il y ait une
bonne circulation d’air. 17. N’enfoncez jamais d’objets à travers les
ouvertures de cet appareil, car ils pourraient entrer en contact avec des
points de tension dangereux ou causer des courts-circuits qui peuvent
dégénérer en incendies ou en risques d’électrocution. Ne renversez jamais de
liquide dans ce produit. 18. Afin de réduire les risques d’électrocution, ne
démontez pas cet appareil, mais apportez-le dans un centre de service
autorisé. L’ouverture du boîtier ou le retrait de toutes pièces que contient
cet appareil, à l’exception de l’accès autorisé à certaines portes ou
ouvertures, risque de vous exposer à des points de tension dangereux ou
d’autres dangers. Un remontage incorrect peut par la suite présenter des
risques d’électrocution. 19. Vous devriez tester la réception chaque fois que
vous mettez l’appareil en fonction. 20. Examinez les composantes afin de
vérifier si celles-ci ne sont pas endommagées. 21. Soyez avisé de la perte de
la confidentialité lorsque vous utilisez les ondes publiques. Les
conversations peuvent être entendues par d’autres moniteurs de bébé, des
téléphones sans fil, des scanneurs, etc. 22. Les enfants devraient être
supervisés afin de vous assurer qu’ils ne jouent pas avec l’appareil. 23. Le
produit n’est pas conçu pour être utilisé par des personnes (incluant des
enfants) aux capacités physiques, sensorielles ou mentales réduites ou qui
manquent d’expérience et de connaissances, à moins qu’on leur ait donné
suffisamment de supervision ou d’instructions relativement à l’utilisation de
l’appareil par une personne responsable de leur sécurité.

électroniques tels que des routeurs sans fil, radios, téléphones cellulaires,
interphones, moniteurs, téléphones, ordinateurs personnels, électroménagers et
téléphones sans fil.
Stimulateurs cardiaques implantés dans l’organisme
Les simulateurs cardiaques (ne s’applique qu’aux dispositifs numériques sans
fil) : L’organisme `Wireless Technology Research, LLC (WTR)’, une firme de
recherche indépendante, a mené une évaluation pluridisciplinaire des
interférences entre les téléphones sans fil portatifs et les stimulateurs
cardiaques implantés dans l’organisme. Appuyée par l’Administration des
aliments et drogues (FDA) des États-Unis, la firme WTR recommande aux
médecins:
Avis aux détenteurs de stimulateurs cardiaques
· Vous devriez maintenir les dispositifs sans fil à au moins six pouces du
simulateur cardiaque. · Ils ne doivent PAS placer le téléphone sans fil
directement sur le stimulateur cardiaque, tel que dans une poche de chemise,
lorsque celui-ci
est en marche.
L’étude effectuée par l’organisme WRS n’a pas identifié de risque pour les
détenteurs de simulateurs cardiaques causés par les gens qui utilisent
dispositifs sans fil à proximité de ceux-ci.
